Geonor supplies equipment and complete solutions for monitoring and remote reading of parameters related to natural forces and structures. Geonor can supply all the necessary equipment for monitoring pore pressure, groundwater, precipitation, soil moisture, slope angles, landslide risk, vibrations and more.
The need for monitoring natural forces and structures to protect tunnels, roads, bridges, railways, drinking water sources, groundwater reservoirs and other parts of society's infrastructure will increase in the years to come. Our modular and comprehensive solutions are designed to carry out monitoring in a simple and cost-effective way, with the ability to continuously transmit data from sensors and loggers, either telemetrically to a head office or directly presented on a website. The solutions are suitable for both large and small projects. Geonor has delivered complete solutions for remote monitoring with anything from 3 to 300 sensors.
In recent years, Geonor has installed systems in a number of large and small projects for monitoring ground conditions using IoT (Internet of Things). We supply the main components of the communication solution from Worldsensing SA and their Loadsensing system. See Worldsensing 's website.
This communication solution can be connected to a number of different sensors, and presents data on a GIS viewing solution/web portal from Vista Data Vision.
Remote reading of Geonor and other sensors
This is a complete solution for remote reading of almost all types of sensors: groundwater level, pore pressure, inclinometers, load cells, crack/tilt meters, weather data, temperature, environmental parameters, etc.The solution includes reading sensors at the desired interval and transmitting data one or more times per day. The results are automatically routed to a web page and presented in the form of graphs/curves or tables. The system can consist of 2 different types of loggers and communication systems, or a combination of these;
1) Communication between data logger(s) and Gateway(s) is via radio frequency in a closed IoT system (e.g. LoRa). Communication between Gateway and FTP server to web page is via GSM and is updated there in the same way. This is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution, as there is no need for SIM cards in loggers, and the batteries used are smaller and have a longer lifespan.
2) All communication is via GSM. The system consists of a cabinet with data logger(s) and GSM modem. The solution includes reading of sensors at the desired interval and transmission of data once or several times per day. The results are automatically routed to a web page and updated there in the form of graphs/curves or in tabular form.
3) Combination of both GSM/mobile network and IoT Lora to FTP server and display in the same web portal. Data loggers and web page
Data loggers and website
Geonor uses loggers and Gateways from Worldsensing when the solution allows the use of radio communication between loggers and Gateway. Worldsensing, with its Loadsensing system, is the world leader in IoT (Internet of Things) communication for applications in building and construction.
Geonor mainly uses data loggers from CampbellScientific when communication is via the GSM/mobile network. These are robust and flexible data loggers that are among the most widely used in professional measurement and monitoring.
A solution from Vista Data Vision is used for display, including GIS and web page updates.
